I bought my 2012 Chevrolet Silverado Texas edition on, May 26, 2012, from classic Chevrolet of grapevine, Texas. I paid $31,622.80 for the truck. I feel that a new vehicle sold in America should have an implied warranty attached to it that goes above and beyond express warranties when it comes to the vehicle's safety. After two years as an owner of this vehicle I noticed a stain on my rear carpet. The more I rubbed it the more it spread. I figured that one of my grand children probably spilled something and so I just decided to try to live with it. In late 2019 I noticed that my carpet behind my driver's seat was wet after a heavy rain. So I towel dried it and took a paper receipt from my console and attempted to adjust the header pressure on the rear door by striking the rocker panel striker. This year I took a trip to Kansas City, Missouri in February. I found myself having to drive under rainy, misting, windshield, freezing and fogging, up. My defroster was no match for it because it never was able to clear my windshield sufficiently. On the way back to Texas I left K.C. at 4:00 am. The hazardous weather was still persisting. My blood pressure and heartbeat raced a few times when I tried to move ahead of trucks to avoid the splashing from their wake. In June I discovered pooling of water behind my driver's seat. It was so ridiculous I had to take it to classic. After 3 hours in the service department the service manager returned to me and escorted me to the technician. The tech showed me that the water was coming from an unsealed overlap at my firewall. He explained that the leak's been going on for some time. This area at the top of your fender is where the water is entering and it fills up an area inside your finder and then it leaks through your firewall and runs down your rocker and settles at the back seat well. That report cost me $145.

No part available for the climate control, with a mail in procedure and a 30 day turn around time. This creates a visibility hazard while driving. Inability to control the heat during colder climate while creating foggy windows and trying to travel. This is a safety hazard for the driver as well as the public! I cannot take the part out for a month because I have no idea what the weather will be like 10 minutes from now and if I did would be without for 30 days and not have the ability to clear a foggy windshield!
